Feel-Good Kniting
I don't know if it's the fact that winter weather is finally here, but there's been some interest in my Very Necessary Sweater pattern of late. I've heard from a few people who were planning to knit or in the midst of knitting the sweater, but just after I got back from London, I got a lovely e-mail from Enid with this picture attached:
Isn't it awesome? She made some adjustments to the pattern, and I'm hoping that she'll pass on her numbers to me so that I can see if I can use them to add another size to the pattern.
When I was up in Boston, Colleen mentioned that she was planning to start her very own necessary sweater. She also reminded me of a part of the pattern that I'd been meaning to clarify, which I finally did on the version that's posted on this page. Colleen's now well into her sweater, which she's knitting in a lovely orange color. (While you're over there, give a few dollars to Rosie's Place, will ya?)
Anybody else out there working on it?
PS - Speaking of charity, if you're a DC-area knitter, check out this awesome opportunity to use up some stash and do an awful lot of good for the chronically ill... and DCist has posted some scarf patterns to get you started. Get your knits in by February 6!
